Forklift Pedestrian Safety

Every year there are over a hundred forklift related deaths in North America, 36% of these involve forklifts and pedestrians. While some companies work to reduce collision risks by adding guard rails, this isn't always the best solution for busy warehouses with limited floor space.

Leavitt Machinery provides a variety of solutions designed to keep your employees safe and accidents to a minimum.
